Blue Grosbeak Malibu Creek State Park 6659 Southern California_

"This is a medium-sized bird species. It is characterized by a triangularly-shaped bill, which appears as if covering the entire front zone of the bird’s face, starting from the throat and reaching up to the forehead.

Breeding adult male blue grosbeaks display a deep, vivid, rich blue coloration overall. They have a tiny-sized black mask. The large beak is black-and-silver in color, and the wing bars exhibit a warm chestnut tone."
